Meet Jeannette: Your coach to vocal excellence

Jeannette is an elite voice coach specializing in high-performance vocal training, while also guiding beginner and intermediate singers and speakers in developing confident, healthy, and expressive voices. She is an accomplished professional singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, session musician, and producer whose career reflects exceptional artistic achievement and international versatility.

Her professional experience spans songwriting, music production, live performance, recording, and advanced vocal coaching. Throughout her career, she has collaborated with acclaimed recording artists, award-winning producers, dignitaries, and audiences across Canada and internationally. Combining decades of industry experience with evidence-based vocal training, Jeannette helps performers, professionals, and emerging artists unlock the full potential of their voice with technical precision, artistry, and confidence.

Jeannette's teaching is grounded in evidence-based vocal pedagogy, informed by contemporary voice science, anatomy, physiology, acoustics, and the principles of vocology. She is committed to lifelong professional development and continually integrates the latest peer-reviewed research into her teaching, ensuring her methods remain current, effective, and aligned with evolving scientific understanding.

To maintain the highest standard of instruction, Jeannette completes advanced professional education each year in areas including breath management, vocal acoustics, vocal registration, anatomy and physiology, motor learning, neurodivergent learning, trauma-informed teaching, voice disorders, voice habilitation, voice rehabilitation, vocal health, and the psychological factors that influence voice use and performance. This ongoing commitment allows her to provide clients with training that is both scientifically informed and individually tailored to support safe, efficient, and sustainable vocal development.

Jeannette also maintains a trusted network of healthcare and allied professionals to whom she refers clients when specialized assessment or treatment is appropriate. Referrals may include, but are not limited to, concerns involving emotional well-being, tongue-tie (ankyloglossia), speech and language disorders, laryngeal or vocal health conditions, chronic muscle tension or stiffness, postural or muscular imbalances, and other concerns that fall outside the scope of vocal coaching.

Jeannette believes the hallmark of a great voice coach is understanding one's professional limitations, and thus, pulling in the right network of professionals to support the individual as a whole.
